Personal Statement
I know that pursuing therapy is not easy for most of us. Youll find me a dynamic, interactive partner in sorting out the concerns that brought you to therapy. I want you to feel comfortable and at ease in the often difficult task of trusting someone with understanding the challenges you are facing. So, I am committed to being an active, compassionate listener that offers accepting, affirming and authentic interactions.
I had the unique experience growing up as the daughter of a summer camp director. This rich experience shaped me; teaching me creativity, resourcefulness and a deep appreciation for people from all over the globe. As a result, I have developed an affinity for and focus on children, teens and their families. In being a youth counselor and now child therapist, I have had extensive training and experience with child, adolescent and family issues and how to support and help parents with their childrens struggles.
In this context, I offer parenting support and family counseling to help with relationship issues so that everyone feels heard and an important and valued part of the family. I also specialize in helping families cope with separation and divorce, and helping straight, gay and lesbian ex partners and spouses navigate the challenges of co-parenting.
